One reason why I love the toys in the 80’s is the creativity. Highway Haunter looks like a regular Volkswagen Beetle at first. Press a couple of buttons and it transforms into a big ass praying mantis.
The wheels really work and you can play with it as a regular car or as a monster. Right now I have Peter riding the car with his date. They’re in for a surprise.
You can check out more pictures of the Highway Haunter and other vintage toys in our photo gallery.

I still have this but the front wheels fell off. I also have the Helicopter and Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. Helicopter is missing side doors but Mr. Stay Puft is completely intact

Good stuff, but is the beetle a good guy or a bad guy?
